Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to a novel class of supermolecular carboplatin derivatives, the preparation of such derivatives, a pharmaceutical composition containing them as active ingredient, and use of the derivatives and pharmaceutical compositions containing them for the clinical treatment of various cellular cancers such as hepatoma, stomach cancer, lung cancer and the like.

BACKGROUND ART

[0002] Platinum-containing anticancer drugs have attracted the attention of scientists from many countries since Rosenberg and Camp firstly reported the anticancer effect of cisplatinum[Cis-Pt(NH₃)₂Cl₂] in 1969(Trans. Met. Chem., 1987:14, 77). In the last 30 years, tens of platinum-containing anticancer drugs have been successfully developed and applied in clinical treatment of cancers, such as Iproplatin(GB1578323), Oxaliplatin(J. Med. Chem., 1978:21, 1315), Ormaplatin(J. Med. Chem., 1978:21, 1315), Labaplatin(EP176005), Carboplatin(GB20244823) and the like. However, these drugs are inadvantageous in that their stability in aqueous solution is not so good and thus they cannot used in the form of oral preparations; the y have high toxicity to human body and thus result in many serious toxic reactions in stomach, kidney, blood and the like. Therefore, novel cisplatinum-derived compounds without the above-mentioned defects have been investigated by pharmaceutical specialists all over the world for many years, but up to now, there is no substantive progress.

[0003] In 1978, J. M. Lehn proposed a new concept that weak intermolecular interactions form supermolecular compounds, that is to say, molecules, when bound via a noncovalent force(such as hydrogen bond, coordination bond, van der Waals force, electrostatic attraction, etc.), form molecular aggregates, which exhibit new physicochemical activities such as selectivity, identifiability and migration, and are named as "supermolecular compound". C. J. Peterson, D. J. Cram and Lehn were awarded the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1987 for their great achievements in supermolecular compounds including crown ethers, cryptands and the like(J. M. Lehn, Angew. Chem., Inter. Ed. Engl., 27, 89, 1988). However, researches concerning the chemical structures of the supermolecular drugs proposed by the present inventors have not been disclosed in prior art.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0004] Based on the theory of supermolecular chemistry, the present inventors have firstly and successfully designed and synthesized a class of cage-like supermolecular carboplatin anticancer drugs formed by hydrogen and coordination bonds.

[0005] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a novel class of supermolecular carboplatin derivatives.

[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a process for preparing said supermolecular carboplatin derivatives.

[0007] Another object of the present invention is to provide a pharmaceutical composition comprising as active ingredient said supermolecular carboplatin derivatives.

[0008] Still another object of the present invention is to provide the use of said supermolecular carboplatin derivatives for the clinical treatment of cellular cancers such as hepatoma, stomach cancer, lung cancer and the like.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] In one aspect, the present invention provides a supermolecular carboplatin derivative represented by general formula (I):

which is a supermolecular compound consisting of a host component A---carboplatin and a guest component B bound via intermolecular hydrogen bonds, wherein the guest component B is a polycarboxylic acid represented by general formula (II):

wherein R₁ and R₂ may be the same or different from one another, and independently represent hydrogen, hydroxy, carboxy, phenyl or 3,5-dicarboxyphenyl, n represents an integer of from 0 to 3, with the proviso that R₁ and R₂ on the same carbon atom cannot be hydroxy or carboxy at the same time, and if n is 2, a double bond may exist between the two carbon atoms, or R₁ and R₂ may form together with the carbon atom to which they are attached a cyclohexane ring or a benzene ring optionally substituted by one or two further carboxy.

[0010] The guest component B is preferably selected from the group consisting of oxalic acid, 1,3-propanedioic acid, 1,4-butanedioic acid, 1,5-pentanedioic acid, cis-butenedioic acid, 2-hydroxy-1,4-butanedioic acid(malic acid), 2,3-dihydroxy-1,4-butanedioic acid(tartaric acid), 2-phenyl-1,3-propanedioic acid, 1,2-dicarboxycyclohexane, 3-hydroxy-3-carboxy-1,5-pentanedioic acid(citric acid), phthalic acid, 1,3,4-benzenetricarboxylic acid and 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid, with oxalic acid, 1,3-propanedioic acid, 1,4-butanedioic acid, 2-phenyl-1,3-propanedioic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid or citric acid being more preferred.

[0011] Preferably in the compound of general formula (I), the host component A-- carboplatin is bound with the guest component B by multiple hydrogen bonds, thereby forming a supermolecular compound with a cage-like spatial structure. For example, when the guest component B is phenylmalonic acid, a supermolecular compound having following general formula (III) is obtained,

[0012] The supermolecular compound A---B represented by general formula (I) according to the present invention is stable both in solid and in aqueous solution, without dissociation. It is confirmed by spectral analysis, such as UV, IR, NMR, MS, X-ray monomorphic diffraction and the like, that the supermolecular compound according to the present invention is not a mixture, but a novel molecular compound having a single molecular weight, a stable element composition and stable spectral characteristics. The N atom in the intramolecular -NH₃ group is in a valence of +5, and thus cannot form a salt(-NH₄) with H⁺; the H atom in the carboxy group of the guest component B forms intramolecular hydrogen bonds with the carbonyl group of the host component A; and at the same time, the H atom in the amino group -NH₃ of the host component A forms intramolecular hydrogen bonds with the carbonyl group of the guest component B, thereby constructing the supermolecular compound represented by general formula (I).

[0013] In another aspect, the present invention provides a process for preparing the compound represented by general formula (I), which comprises the steps of:

a) preparing aqueous solutions of the host component A---carboplatin and the guest component B, respectively, with their molar concentrations being equal;

b) mixing in equal molar amounts the two starting solutions at a temperature of 4 to 40°C, stirring homogeneously, sterilized and filtered, and

c) diluting the solution obtained in step b) with pure water, followed by direct sealing as an aqueous injection of 50mg/5ml, or concentrating the aqueous product solution at a temperature below 40°C and then drying to form a solid powder.

[0014] In the process according to the present invention, the reaction in step b) is preferably carried out at a pH of from 2 to 4, and in order to keep the pH in such a range, a certain amount of component B can be used.

[0015] The present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of various cellular cancers, comprising as active ingredient the compound represented by general formula (I) according to the present invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Said pharmaceutical composition can be formulated into dosage forms such as tablets, capsules, pills, oral solutions and the like.

[0016] The present invention further relates to use of the supermolecular compound represented by general formula (I) for the clinical treatment of various cellular cancers such as hepatoma, stomach cancer, lung cancer and the like.

[0017] The supermolecular compound represented by general formula (I) according to the present invention exhibits high selectivity for cancer cells. Tests on human cancer cells incubated in vitro show that the supermolecular compound according to the present invention kills various cancer cells such as of liver, stomach, colon, large intestine, pancreas, breast and lung cancer at a rate significantly higher than that by carboplatin, in particular, in the case of hepatoma, at a rate one to two times higher than that by carboplatin, with IC₅₀ being about 10-15µg/ml. The test method and the results are shown below.

Method:

[0018] The test is carried out in accordance with the internationally accepted pharmacodynamic cytotoxic assay. The drug to be tested is diluted to a desired concentration using 15% fetal calf serum RPMI-1640 medium, filtered and sterilized through an aseptic membrane, and then formulated to provide concentration gradients of 200, 100, 50 and 10µg/ml. The resulting solutions are added to a microtiter plate containing various incubated human cancer cells, and then are incubated for 72 hours. To each well of the plate is added 0.5µl 0.2% MTT solution, and after 4 hours, DMSO is added to develop color. The absorbance of each well is taken using Model 250 microplate reader, from which the fatality rates of cancer cells and IC₅₀ values are calculated.

The LD₅₀ value is calculated according to Kurber method. Likewise, the LD₅₀ value for intraperitoneal injection(ip) is calculated.

[0023] Although the anticancer mechanism of the compound according to the present invention is not fully determined, it is believed that the following explanations can be made according to the modern molecular biology. The key points of pharmaceutical molecular design lie in that a host component A effective against cancers and a guest component B capable of forming a supermolecular cage with the component A must be present so as to form a supermolecular cage-like compound by coordination and hydrogen bonds, which cage should be relatively stable and not dissociated in aqueous solutions and body fluid, and only when encountering structurally abnormal DNA in cancer cells, become opened due to the induction of free base of the abnormal DNA such as adenine, thereby releasing the active host component A to kill cancer cells. According to such an assumption, the host component A in the present invention is designed to be carboplatin which clinically kills cancer cells and is relatively low in toxicity; and the guest component B should contain polycarboxylic acid group in its structure, and can be bound with the host component A by multiple hydrogen bonds to form the cage-like supermolecule A-B, which retains the relatively stable cage-like structure in body fluid and cells without dissociation, showing no "toxicity" of the host component A to proteins, membranes and normal DNA and RNA. When the supermolecule A-B encounters cancer cells, local hydrogen bonds in the duplex DNA structure in cancer cells would be destructed, thereby exposing free bases, which in turn induces opening of hydrogen bonds in the supermolecule A-B, and the release of the host component A, with the Pt atom in the host component binding to the exposed base of purine in structurally abnormal DNA, thus effectively interrupting the DNA replication and transcription in cancer cells. The procedure can be summarized as below:
